Oaks Park

A Natural Retreat

Found in College Station, Texas, Oaks Park spreads across 8.3 acres of refreshing green space that feels worlds away from city life. This public park offers a quiet space where you can catch your breath and reconnect with nature.

True to its name, the park's majestic oak trees create a natural canopy, offering cool spots well-suited for afternoon picnics or simply sitting back with a good book. If you're an early bird, you might catch glimpses of squirrels scampering about and local birds greeting the day with their songs.

Paths to Explore

The park's network of trails weaves through the landscape, inviting you to lace up your walking shoes or running sneakers. These well-kept paths are just right for a morning jog, a midday stroll, or walking your four-legged friend. The winding routes through the trees provide a peaceful walking experience.

The park's 9-hole disc golf course, established in 2005, is its most notable feature. If you've never tried disc golf before, this beginner-friendly course makes for a wonderful introduction to the sport. Open year-round, it's no wonder this has become the park's most beloved feature, drawing players of all skill levels.

Get Your Game On

Feeling competitive? The park's basketball court offers a space to shoot some hoops or join in a pickup game. For those who prefer volleyball, there's a sand volleyball court complete with lighting for evening matches. Just a heads-up: the sand is a bit rougher than what you might find at other courts nearby, but that hasn't stopped it from becoming a favorite meetup spot.

Family Fun

Kids need space to burn energy, and while the playground here isn't enormous or fancy, it's well-maintained and does the job perfectly for neighborhood families looking for an outdoor play space.

Need a break from the sun? The park features two gazebos that provide welcome shade and shelter. These covered spots are ideal for family gatherings, birthday celebrations, or just enjoying lunch with a view.

Neighborhood Haven

As a modest community park, Oaks Park holds special value for those living nearby. Its approachable size and thoughtful amenities make it especially convenient for residents within walking distance.

A word of caution when exploring: you should be aware that the natural areas occasionally have wildlife visitors, including snakes near water features. Just stay alert and respect their space as you enjoy yours.
